This isn't currently supported, but would welcome something like this as a feature request!

I would love to have session management and sign in / sign out be possible across devices.

May I add to the discussion that an another way could be a temporary magic code in addition to a magic link, like the system used by Glitch for example.

Thanks! Agree something like being able to use a link or enter a code would be an ideal user experience.

I think the codes should be short for convenience (e.g. ~6 chars) but support that securely we may also need to ensure they cannot be abused, which seems like it might require some changes to the current implementation - and possibly verification schema (and potentially to adaptors, ugh) which is currently what is holding things up.

I'm very keen to see this though!
